Little Band-Wagon Journeys By L. T. MERRILL 1928. Western Newspaper First Dark Horse first dark horse candidate in American politics ran under the wire a winner in the Democratic national convention of 1844. Former President Martin Van Buren of New York and Gen. Lewis Cass of Michigan were the leading Democratic contenders for the nomination. Van Buren was the conceded fa vorite. Then the question of the annexation of Texas suddenly interposed itself shortly before the convention assembled at Baltimore. Van Buren expressed himself against annexation. That made him steadily lose ground, especially in the South. His friends, sure of a majority. tried to secure his nomination by having the convention waive the twothirds rule. This rule had been first invoked in Van Buren's behalf. By historic irony, the rule that his old patron, Andrew Jackson, had reared for him as a stepping stone now was to prove a fatal obstacle to New York's "Little Magician." Some of the same Democrats who had urged original adoption of the rule to help Van Buren now argued for Its retention to defeat him, in the debate on the question that occupied a major share of the convention's attention for a day and a half. Finally the rule was retained by a majority vote of 30, the division being sharply along sectional lines, with southerners for and northerners against it. On the first ballot for Presidential nominees, Van Buren commanded 146 of the 266 votes--or 32 short of the two-thirds necessary to nominateCass had 83. On successive ballots the "Little Magician's" fortunes steadily declined while those of his opponent steadily rose, till on the seventh and last taken for the day, Cass was 24 ahead of Van Buren. During the night a great deal of maneuvering was done by the various managers. Next day on the eighth ballot, James Knox Polk of Tennessee, who had not figured at all in the previous voting, jumped into prominence with 44 votes. As the run toward Polk set in, the discomfited delegation from New York let loose on the convention flow of lurid oratory. A New York spokesman had his metaphors rudely warped by the warmth of his passion when he declared that a firebrand had been thrown into the convention by the mongrel administration at Washing. ton; but that firebrand (the Texas question) like a fever would wear itself out or kill the patient. As Nero fiddled while Rome burned, so a Democratic fiddling Nero had thrown this firebrand to advance his own aspiring ambition, the orator declaimed. The convention hall resounded with hisses, groans and demands for revelation of the fiddling Nero. It was too late to save Van Buren. As the ninth ballot was begun, state after state threw its solid vote to Polk. Virginia yielded "with a bleeding heart," but with her chief purpose to "defeat that apostate, Henry Clay," (who already had been nominated by the Whigs) she laid "her heart upon the altar of her country and her principles." The New York delegation, which had retired for consultation, returned just in time to hear the Virginia speaker. They realized the game was up for them. Benjamin F. Butler, later Civil war general, as head of the New York contingent declared his delegation "responded with all its heart" to the noble words of the orator from Virginia. New York threw in the Van Buren sponge. A letter from General Jackson, pleading for harmony, completed the work. Polk's candidacy went over in a tumultuous stampede to his standard. The man thus elevated almost by chance to the leadership of his party and, as it proved, to the Presidency, had little national reputation, though he had served briefly as speaker of the house of representatives. It was his colorless political character that excited no factional antagonisms and made him available as the instrument of restored party harmony. Besides nominating the first dark horse, this Democratic convention had another distinction in being the first one whose proceedings were reported by a new-fangled instrument, the telegraph. Over the first line of telegraph wire in America, that lately had been installed between Baltimore and Washington, amazed folk in the capital heard of the dark horse nomination and some exclaimed in surprise, "Who Is Polk?" Back over the wire from Washington went a peremptory refusal from Senator Silas Wright to accept the vice presidential nomination that the convention tendered him. Stung by the rejection of Van Buren, he declined to accept the second place on the ticket as the of Polk.
